last week I wrote to the Governor of HMP New Hall in Wakefield about the wellbeing of hunger-striker, Heba Muraisi.

Heba and other hunger strikers have been held on remand for an excessive amount of time for non-violent protest action…

i call on the Secretary of State for Justice to engage with the families and legal team of the hunger-strikers and seek to resolve this crisis.

Standing by passively is not acceptable. Immediate government action is essential.

It’s long past time that the British Govt broke with its shameful failure to stand up against the Gaza genocide.

Was there ever anything more disgraceful said about welfare benefits than that they β€œare pocket money”?

If the exit polls are correct then Germany echoes the US election. Weak centre left governing parties make way for right wing shifts when they fail to stand up for middle and lower income earners esp in Held Back regions.

During the discussions about β€˜assisted dying’ one key issue arose time and again. This issue was the lack of public resources for palliative care.
The government must now find the necessary funds available

John Prescott was a Labour giant. I knew him well. V sad to hear of his passing. Mining communities owe him a debt for settling the enormous claim for industrial injuries. In my constit over 10000 families received compensation which amounted to Β£100m plus
Thank you my mate. ✊

Impt announcement from Scottish Labour. As winter bites,I worry for our elders struggling to keep warm.
In my area every village has at least one warm community room.
But the government should now correct its mistake and instate protective benefits to all who struggle

This magnificent banner - at least 2m x 2m - recalls the struggles of the Miners in my constituency. Proudly hangs in the community hall near Frickley.
Never forget the miners
Never forgive Thatcher
The struggle goes on!
